*SYNOPSIS*

* *

*CABARET *revolves around a night club in Berlin, as the 1920's are drawing
to a close. The Master of Ceremonies welcomes the audience to the show and
assures them that, whatever their troubles, they will forget them at the
Cabaret. His songs provide wry commentary throughout the show. On the train
to Berlin we find Cliff, a young American writer, and Ernst, a German who
surprises Cliff by putting his briefcase among Cliff's luggage at the
German border. History is in the process of being made. Musical numbers
include *It Couldn't Please Me More, Willkommen, Cabaret, Don't Tell Mama*and
* Two Ladies*. We find Cliff on the train again, now leaving Berlin alone.
He writes about Sally and the people of Berlin leading up to the Third
Reich. It has been a tumultuous and heartbreaking era.

Character Breakdown:

*Fraulein** Schneider* - Alto, A landlady who rents rooms in her large
flat, Age 50+, German accent. Comfortable with stage movement and light
dance.

*Herr ** Schultz** -* Tenor, One of Fraulein Schneider's roomers and the
proprietor of a Fruit shop. Age 50+. German accent. Comfortable with stage
movement and light dance.

*Fraulein ** Kost* - Alto/Mezzo, Another of Frl. Schneider's roomers. She
earns money by offering favours to sailors, presentation of the character
should exhibit a strong sexual comfort and commanding nature. Comfortable
with stage movement and dance. German accent. 30's to 40's

*Ensemble* - Kit Kat Klub boys & girls, must be strong dancers and singers,
will also perform additional roles and speaking parts in various scenes and as
club patrons. Some of the individuals will be German Sailors who
frequent Fraulein
Kost's services. Should be comfortable with portraying free in gender
depictions.
Ability to play a musical instrument a plus.

*NOTE:* Theatre Now New York practices non-traditional casting and strongly
suggests that all ethnicities and types apply.
